Cooking the Fish

Once the oil has cooled, about 30 minutes, turn the heat back on to medium and heat the oil to 150 degrees.

Slip in the fish and arrange it in one layer. The fish must be completely covered.

Turn off the heat and cover the pot again. Let the fish steep in the oil for another half-hour to 45 minutes.
